Post 3/10: Another shock when moving from academia to industry is STOPPING. Good data does not always save a project. In industry, programs can stop for reasons beyond science. Experiments exist to reduce uncertainty, not to guarantee survival.#AcademicCareers
As the new year begins, I am starting a short series for academicians considering a move into industry, based on my transition.
People do not struggle because of science, but because the definition of progress is constantly changing. Industry rewards decisions, not data.
@ashleyruba_phd Absolutely! Industry offers dynamic, purpose-driven research that fuels innovation. Embracing the diverse opportunities in industry dispels these misconceptions and opens doors to fulfilling, impactful careers! #IndustryTruths#CareerMythsBusted#InnovationMatters

"๐ Major Milestone Alert! ๐ Just dosed the first subject in our phase 1/1b trial of INI-2004, a promising step towards tackling allergic rhinitis. Kudos to the incredible team at Inimmune Corporation for their dedication! ๐ @inimmune#vaccines#nanoparticles
Excited to begin my journey as a Senior Scientist at @inimmune , transitioning from academia to industry. Grateful for this incredible opportunity to contribute to scientific discoveries that improve lives.
@OdedRechavi According to me, requirement and the right fit are the crucial factors. Even with the most perfectly drafted email will not fetch any replies unless they need one.
@AcademicChatter Choosing the right supervisor is crucial for doctoral success. Reputation of university matters, but quality of supervision makes the difference. Seek recommendations, evaluate fit, and prioritize supportive mentorship over prestige
@FitFounder "Weight does not equal health! Skinny doesn't always mean healthy, just as being overweight doesn't always mean unhealthy. Let's focus on promoting overall wellness and self-care, regardless of body size. #HealthAtEverySize#BodyPositivity"
@PhD_Genie "Writing two papers at the same time? It's not easy, but it's doable! Stay organized, prioritize tasks, and take breaks to avoid burnout. With determination and focus, you can make it happen. #AcademicWriting#ResearchGoals"
@PhDVoice@PostdocVoice Leaving academia can be the right choice for some, but for those who stay, serving as a reviewer for scientific articles can be a fulfilling way to contribute to the field. You can have the best of both worlds! #AcademicLife
@wiseconnector While sharing a toothbrush with a partner may seem intimate, it's not recommended from a hygiene standpoint. Toothbrushes can harbor bacteria and viruses that can be easily transmitted from person to person, potentially causing infections or illnesses.
@ML_Philosophy My one golden rule in life is to always treat others with kindness and respect. It costs nothing to be kind, and you never know what someone else may be going through. Plus, treating others well often leads to positive relationships and experiences, which can enrich our lives.
@AcademicChatter Absolutely agree! Post-docs are highly qualified researchers who have completed their PhD and are making significant contributions to their fields. They should be recognized as professionals and valued for their expertise, rather than being treated as perpetual students.
@LifeAfterMyPhD Leaving academia can be daunting, but it's also empowering to explore career options on your own terms. You no longer need validation from others to feel successful. Good luck for your future.
@Andrew_Akbashev Relying solely on recommendation letters for academic hiring perpetuates a biased and exclusive system that favors those with privilege and connections over merit and diversity. It's time to overhaul the hiring process and prioritize fair and objective evaluation methods.
